Pomona youth, adults try to raise awareness that alcohol should be kept away from teens

Contra Costa Times
Village Academy High School senior Jose Martinez and Los Angeles County Deputy Probation Officer Lorenzo Arnold teamed up late last week to place important stickers on six packs kept in the Pomona Wine Cellar's refrigerators. As Arnold pulled out the beer bottles Martinez was at the ready with a sticker the officer would affix to the carton. Martinez and Arnold are just a few of the teens and adults taking part in Project Sticker Shock, a campaign of Partnership for a Positive Pomona designed to let adults know it's illegal to provide alcoholic beverages to youth under the age of 21.
